Deploying Maximo 7.6.1.X to Red Hat OpenShift

[@surbabup286]

Hi Doug, That's a great demo. Do you have any documentation on how to set up the openshift cluster that you used in your CentOS VM?

Doug , this has been very , very useful . Within a short time one can grasp the Openshift inclusion to Maximo landscape . Really appreciate your demo session . I have two questions . The current version of Openshift goes with podman ( and not docker ) . Do you have the Openshift podman equivalent commands that does the image creation , repository push and later including them in Openshift project ? I would also like to know a little bit about the Maximo database ( Oracle in your example ) creation . I guess the database was not running in a container . If that is so then I would be interested to understand how the maximo ui and maximo cron workloads were interacting with the database . It would be great if you could include some steps showing where did you create the database and what networking interfacing did you add for these containers to connect to the database . Overall a great session . Keep up the fantastic work !!!

Thanks Doug! this was very helpful. Can we say that Maximo Asset Management 7.6 officially supported on Openshift? I could not find any deployment on K8s/OCP in the knowledge center.

No, not officially supported as of now. Maybe that will change in the future

@@dgianno Thank you for your swift reply! I can see there is an announcement letter for Maximo Application Suite (which includes Asset Management?) supports and run on OCP www-01.ibm.com/common/ssi/cgi-bin/ssialias?infotype=an&subtype=ca&appname=gpateam&supplier=897&letternum=ENUS220-237 or did I misunderstood it wrong?

@@Fadin19 You are correct, Maximo Application Suite (MAS) can only be deployed on OpenShift. MAS includes EAM as well as additional functionality.

I'm curious about the database connection did you create a separate image for your db ? did you expose the db with the route so property file can read it

[@dgianno]

Database is external to the env, so a jdbc connection is being made it it

[@lilabrowns]

@@dgianno Ok cool, Thanks

[@amirsamir007]

Does the same apply to V8 ? Does it has to be Open Shift , can not be on Docker server ?

[@dgianno]

No, It has not be OpenShift

[@oldpaemt]

Doug, Thanks for the great video. I'm looking to set this up on Power-8 systems. I tried to send you an email but it was undeliverable at your IBM email.
